Behind the Scenes... It's Not All Glamour!

By TigressTasha1 549 views 4th Aug 2026

I think people imagine sellers spend all day lounging around in lingerie, taking a few pictures and then putting their feet up.

I hate to ruin the fantasy...

My reality looked more like this:

☕ Go to work.
🏠 Come home.
🧺 Housework.
🍽️ Feed everyone.
🙃 Wonder if I'd actually sat down all day.
📹 Wait for everyone to finally disappear so I could film customs.
😴 Go to bed ridiculously late.
⏰ Wake up questioning every life choice I'd ever made.

Repeat that five days a week and you've basically summed up my first year pretty damn well.

There were weeks where I honestly felt like my life was just eat, little sleep, film, repeat.

Then there was the pressure I put on myself.

When I first started I had convinced myself I needed to do absolutely everything if I wanted people to notice me, To be in the top % and if i wasn't I'd get annoyed. If someone else was doing it I thought I should probably be doing it to even if I wasn't really comfortable doing it🤦‍♀️

🚨Spoiler alert...🚨

That isn't how it works.

All I actually managed to do was stress myself out trying to be someone I wasn't, and with that I lost who I really was😢 These days I've finally realised something that probably should've been obvious from the start...

People follow me because they like me. Not because I say yes to everything. Not because I'm trying to compete with every other seller. Just me.

So now I make content I actually enjoy making. If I can't film until the weekend... so be it. If I need an early night instead of another custom, I'm taking the early night (my eyebags thank me for it🤣).

I've stopped chasing what everyone else is doing and started enjoying what I'm doing.

Turns out protecting your peace is actually good for business and good for yourself 💜

So what I'm trying to say is don't push yourself over the limit because you're just draining yourself and making things become less enjoyable. Keep being you 🫶

Hor0069 Great read! Lots will feel this, great reminder for all 🖤

Highway101 Keep being you gorgeous ❤️

CreolePrincess Good article and straight to the point describes me exactly

TootsieWershup It’s wild how understanding and flexible buyers become when you stop chasing sales and just work with the ones who like you and see you as a human. This blog was a nice reminder for me. Thanks!

Lucifer1694 I read this and agree with it alot of buyer think your on 24/7 am not saying all am saying some of them reading this puts things in to light you seller have a live and family to cook for and work

QueenCumslut I don't even look at the rankings anymore. I make what I make and do what I do and that is enough ❤️

TigressTasha1 Thank you everyone for your kind words 🫶

KinkylilQT Great blog & couldnt agree more! I actually prioritise my mental health & physical health more now & its done absolute wonders, Ive also learnt to say No & give myself far more rest time as it was taking its toll! Everyone needs a rest & everyone needs boundaries!

AdoremeIdeserveit I love reading the blogs, as a newbie questioning whether I should be pushing my boundaries it was great to read this, thanks 😊

Lsecrets 100% girly! 💋 Loved this x 💕

Petite_Princess Very well said hun. 🫶 Just got through my 1st year (across sites) and this realisation is hitting me hard. x

Rubylovexxxx It’s far from glamour 😂I loved this, an amazing read. Also to newbies don’t lose yourself worrying about rankings etc, take it from someone whose been here a minute, when you realise it’s not actually based only on sales or reviews you’ll realise your peace of mind is far more important than the system. I literally only film content I want nowadays and if the price is right, when I was new I’d film anything to try to get ahead in a system regardless of my peace of mind, then I realised it’s not as important as your peace of mind. Longevity in this business means protecting your mental health first

Fozzie76 Great blog
